shades

Thursday, March 06, 2008

I loved digging through our crayons and finding so many shades of green.I am sure you have seen the crayon roll floating all around blogland. I have seen them numerous places, but knew I had to make one (or many) when I saw this one over at cloth.paper.string. I found the tutorial through sew mama sew. I can't believe that we have gone so long without one. I have been carrying our crayons around in my purse in a plastic ziplock bag. For years!! What was I doing?Doesn't this look so much cuter?

For Libby, (she will have to share the crayons with her brothers when we are out and they are in need of a crayon), fabric from good-nessetsy shop.

I keep meaning to make one of those. They are so handy and cute. Next on my list really. Love the fabric and all they wonderful green. My husband has those " hazel eyes " like your boy's one day they are blue one day they are green. Always beautiful what a great color to have. Mine are brown today they'll be brown tomorrow.

Really, really cute! I could have used one of those when my boys were little. I could probably have avoided the entire Crayon Incident. (Let's just say you should always check the kids' pockets for restaurant crayons before throwing the clothes in the wash.)

OK. Even your darned crayons are better than mine. Mine are all broken and stumpy and rounded and the paper's all missin' and stuff and I don't even know if we have any green ones left, if I'm perfectly honest. The dog probably ate 'em.

Awesome! Thank you for sharing that one. I personally hate it when crayons touch each other and get other crayon colours all over the papers. This does not bother either of my children who are also o.k. with broken tips and ripping the papers much to my chagrin.
